Hi there
I'm visiting Tokyo for two weeks (14 - 25 October) and I'm looking do some day rides out of Tokyo (preferably weekdays as I'll be doing trips on the weekends). Being totally new to cycling in Tokyo, I'd thought I'd throw some general questions out there and see how I go:
- what are the best rides out of the city from central Tokyo? I've heard that Lake Sagami (via Takaosan) and Lake Tama are the best options? I'm looking for hills, scenic rides, and only modest traffic if possible.
- are there regular bunch rides that leave from central Tokyo? Although I quite like riding solo, it would also be cool to ride with a group and meet some locals / expats. Preferably Monday - Thursday groups if possible. Cheers, Nick
